Hello everyone,today isa beautifulsummer day, my favorite time of the year, so Iwant totell you astory thathad, fortunately, a beautifulhappy ending, something that happenedexactly oneyear agoin thissame period of theyear.

When adear friend of mineasked meto doa portrait of herLabrador retriever, Pegghy, as requested by her son, in mymind passed , like a flash, a wave ofdeepsorrow, fortunately already passed.

A few months beforehiseight year old sonhad aseriousaccident. He remainedin a coma forseveral weeksand shehadbeen afraidof losinghim.When hisson came homebroughtwith himnightmaresand night terrors.

It is at this point that Pegghy arrived, and with her contagious joy has become for him a true friend anddismissedhis sadness and fears.

My friendtold me thatbetween thepuppyPegghy and his son was love at first sight, they havebeenimmediately understoodto belongto each other. WithPegghyin his life, he has overcomehis fearsand nightmares.

I painted Pegghy’s portrait on canvas (12”x16”) with acrylics.

The portraitwas intended forher son's room, which isfurnished withthe colorsblue andyellow,so I builta custom framethat fitsperfectly to the styleof the room...modern and colorful!
